The IAC Building is the headquarters of the media company IAC at 555 West 18th Street on the northeast corner of Eleventh Avenue in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Designed by Frank Gehry and completed in 2007, it was Gehry's first full-building design in New York City and featured the world's largest high definition screen at the time in its lobby.Reminiscent of several other Gehry designs, the building appears to consist of two major levels: a large base of twisted tower-sections packed together like the cells of a bee hive, with a second bundle of lesser diameter sitting on top of the first. The cell units have the appearance of sails skinned over the skeleton of the building.
